Bai Shishi held the corner of her clothes with her hands and stood in front of Shen Lang with an uneasy look on her face. She was very worried that he would suddenly raise his hand and slap her brains out so that she could accomplish the feat of annihilating the seven spider sisters - anyway, Bai Shishi
I have seen people with obsessive-compulsive disorder. No matter what they collect, they must collect it all, otherwise they will be anxious and have trouble sleeping and eating.
If Fa Hai is also this kind of person, wouldn't she have a big word "danger" carved on her forehead?
Just when she was feeling uneasy, she saw Shen Lang squinting his eyes, looking her up and down for a while, and said leisurely:
"Who among the officials in Luling Prefecture have not colluded with the Seven Spider Sisters?"
Hearing this, Bai Shishi breathed a long sigh of relief and quickly replied:
"Fu Zun and Fu Cheng are both exiled officials. Although they have received regular tributes from the Luling Chamber of Commerce and Xiangshan Tea House, they have nothing to do with the Spider Sisters. The Spider Sisters will not be transferred to such posts in a few years.
The officials should work hard."
Shen Lang nodded slightly and asked again:
"How many 'Spider Slaves' are there in Tianxiangshe Manor? How many normal people are there who are not deeply involved in the Spider Sisters?"
Bai Shishi said: "There are still more than ten spider slaves. The other maids and servants are just ordinary people hired as cover, and they know nothing about the Spider Sisters."
"If you regain your true self, can you give orders to the remaining spider slaves?"
"Can."
"Can you transfer all the martial arts people and government officials in the city who have been corrupted by the Spider Sisters and controlled by them here?"
"This requires a warrant from the eldest sister. But I know where her seal is, so I can forge the warrant."
"Okay." Shen Lang nodded with satisfaction: "First call me all the spider slaves and capture them alive as witnesses. Then go and call over all those who were corrupted by the spider sisters. Do this well and I will count you.
A major meritorious performance."
Bai Shishi nodded solemnly:
"Don't worry, Master, I will definitely take care of this matter."
Shen Lang hummed and said:
"You know how to break the curse, restore yourself to your true self, and go about your business."
At that moment, Bai Shishi silently recited five calls of Lord Liuli's Dharma, unlocked the "Appearance of All Living Beings" spell, restored his original appearance, and went out to summon the spider slaves.
Shen Lang looked at the trembling sacrifices with a smile, chanted the Buddha's name, and said leisurely:
"Dear donors, the young monk Fahai is respectful."
A brave warrior bravely asked:
"Master is polite. I wonder what Master... will do with us?"
Shen Lang smiled and said:
"Don't panic, everyone. The young monk is a serious monk. He came here to subjugate the demons. Now that the witches have been killed, the donors will be fine. However, we still need to ask the donors to stay here for a while longer.
, after the young monk captures the witch's minions one by one, everyone still needs to bear witness for the young monk in front of the Lord."
Everyone nodded repeatedly and hurriedly agreed:
"It should, it should!"
It was only then that everyone came to their senses - this little monk had an evil nature, and his methods seemed to be more cruel and cunning than the witches, and he could even control evil spirits, but he actually saved us!
If he hadn't taken action in time, everyone present would have been slaughtered by Lin Meng and other witches in front of the altar and sacrificed to the demon "Spider Mother".
Thinking back to what happened when Wu Xiao cut the throat of "Master Kong" with ease, the witches would not have the slightest pity for them, they would kill them as if they were killing chickens.
At that moment, someone quickly bowed his head to the ground:
"Master, I can't repay your great kindness for saving my life. Please accept it and bow down!"
Another wealthy scholar bowed his head and said:
"I wonder which temple the Master practices in? The students are willing to donate a golden Buddha statue to the Master..."
Others also hurriedly bowed, thanked others, and pledged donations.
Shen Lang smiled and accepted everyone's thanks, and then said to the wealthy people who had pledged donations to the temple and obtained golden bodies:
"Donate to the temple and get a golden body. The young monk travels around the world and has no plans to build a temple for the time being. Why not cash it in?"
Discount?
Several rich people looked at each other for a while, then nodded again and again:
"Okay, okay, just give it a discount! Xiao Ke has a banknote with a 'Huitong number' on him. The Huitong number is the imperial court ticket number. It can be exchanged for cash in any city in Dachu..."
"The student's money is stored in the gold and silver shop in Fucheng. When he returns to Fucheng, the student will go to get the money for the Master..."
…
after one day.
An ordinary carriage quietly left Luling City and drove onto the official road to the capital.
Shen Lang was sitting in the carriage, flipping through books of martial arts secrets.
Shen Lang had a great harvest this time by eradicating the Seven Spider Sisters. Not only did he receive a "donation" of more than 5,000 silver dollars, he also seized a large number of martial arts secrets.
The secret techniques of martial arts include: Mountain Shaking Palm, Pansi Tianluo, Shattering Jade Hands, Chasing Wind and Electricity Kicks, Melting Iron Shattering Gold Hands, Thunderbolt Knife, etc., a total of more than ten techniques.
Among them, the techniques practiced by the seven sisters such as Zhenshan Palm, Pansi Tianluo, and Shattered Jade Hands are all second-grade techniques. Unfortunately, the "Spider Mother" has no good intentions and hangs the seven sisters with the techniques. Currently, the highest level only teaches them
To level four.
The subsequent third-level and second-level skills were not rewarded at all, so the seven sisters had to offer more sacrifices in exchange.
However, even if the highest level was only given to the fourth level, so many techniques would still be of great value to Shen Lang.
Not only will it enrich his martial arts skills, but it will also provide more martial arts information for the "Monster Taming Technique Little Moon".
And as long as there are enough martial arts skills as reference materials, "Little Moon Taming Technique" can deduce the realm of the skills to a higher level.
Shen Lang now has three third-level secrets: Ten Steps to Kill, Earthquakes in All Directions, and Xuanbingjin. There are also a large number of fourth-level secrets for reference. Although Buddhist martial arts does not have "fundamental techniques", it only has true secret martial arts moves.
, but it can barely be used as a reference.
Based on Shen Lang's current data reserves, if "Little Moon Taming Technique" suspends the production of "Emperor's Liquid" and fully deduces martial arts secrets, it won't take long for him to obtain a Kung Fu that directly points to the second level.
However, martial arts practice requires condensing the "seeds of true energy" before it can be truly determined and unchangeable.
Before that, as long as you have enough talent, you can practice multiple techniques at will to find the path that suits you best.
Of course, practicing multiple martial arts is a right reserved only for martial arts geniuses.
It is difficult for an ordinary martial artist to master any skill to a high level, so how can he have the energy to practice more at the same time?
Even ordinary little geniuses like Yan Wufeng and Wu Tianhong are afraid of being broad but not masterful, and basically only specialize in one subject.
Only great geniuses, super geniuses, have the talent and energy to study more at the same time.
As for a super genius like Shen Lang who is rare to see in a thousand years, the more techniques he has, the better.
In short, Shen Lang is not even at the fifth level of martial arts. He still doesn't know how long it will take to condense the Qi seeds. He has not yet completely determined the path. For the time being, he has no need for skills above the third level.
Besides, if we can get more martial arts secrets for reference in the future, the deduced techniques will naturally be more powerful. There is really no need to rush to start deducing them now.
After scanning and recording these more than ten Kung Fu secret books, the cheat book can also be used as credit and handed over to the Shen Cat Hall, and then it can be exchanged for more martial arts secret books, gold and silver, or training resources.
Speaking of cultivation resources, there were actually no magic pills, heavenly materials or earthly treasures captured this time.
After asking Bai Shishi, I learned that the seven spider sisters do not need any panacea, heavenly materials, or earthly treasures to practice. They only need to offer sacrifices to the spider mother, and the spider mother will give feedback on the spot, empower the spider sisters, and improve their cultivation.
.
In short, the "Spider Mother"'s gift has never been tangible.
Secret skills and cultivation are all given through direct initiation.
The martial arts skills are also directly taught through initiation, and the secret manuals are copied by the spider sisters themselves.
It was precisely because the Spider Mother never, or rather "couldn't" give him anything in kind, that Lin Meng didn't even have a fourth-grade sword.
Although these dozen or so secret manuals can be regarded as a great harvest and can be exchanged for a lot of credit and resources, Shen Lang still feels a little regretful that he did not get any sustainable regeneration treasures.
While he was looking through the secret book, Bai Shishi, who was wearing a red shirt and had changed her figure and appearance, asked him uneasily:
"Sir, we just left quietly like this? Is it appropriate to leave all the aftermath matters to Fu Zun and Fu Cheng?"
"You are 'A'Zhu' now, so you should call me Uncle Qiao."
Shen Lang, who also changed his body and appearance, used the "Appearance of All Living Beings" spell to appear as a powerful and muscular man in his thirties. He reminded Bai Shishi briefly before continuing:
"Since the Fu Zun and Fu Cheng are not involved with the Spider Sisters, all the officials in the government office who were corrupted by the Spider Sisters have been arrested. There are so many witnesses, physical evidence, and ready-made demon altars, the Fu Zun
Of course, Fu Cheng must handle this matter seriously. I showed them something, and they would never dare to hide anything about it."
What he showed to the Fu Zun and Fu Cheng was, of course, the Shenqatang waist badge that Mu Qingxue gave him.
After showing this card, Shen Lang didn't need to say anything. Luling Fu Zun and Fu Cheng would naturally take care of the aftermath and investigate clearly the causes and consequences of the seven spider sisters' blood sacrifice to the devil.
Then obediently escort the crime file and an interfering prisoner to the Divine Prison Hall.
In addition, Shen Lang also informed the Palace Master about the burial place of "Hydralisk" from the Shen Cat Hall. The aftermath was also entrusted to him.
There has been such a big mess under his own rule. Although the "Seven Spider Sisters" had already started their activities before the current Palace Master took office, if someone with intentions catches the matter and refuses to give up, the current Palace Master will still be very passive.
Furthermore, the Fu Zun did accept the Luling Chamber of Commerce and Xiangshan Tea House's regular filial piety. In order to avoid being caught in the pigtails, no matter how much Shen Lang asked, the Fu Zun could only hold his nose and comply with what he told him.
Done properly.
"Then my business..."
"Don't worry, I will personally take you to the Divine Catcher Hall, and your important meritorious service will not be obscured."
After a pause, Shen Lang said again seriously:
"But you have committed a serious crime after all. If you can avoid death this time, you will have to reform and be a new person. If you really can't avoid death... I can also guarantee that your soul will never fall into the hands of the Spider Mother after your death.
.”
Bai Shishi smiled:
"Then I'd like to thank you first. By the way, hasn't the matter been resolved? The sea arrest documents issued by Luling Prefecture have also been withdrawn. Why do we continue to disguise our identities?"
Of course it was because I performed Buddhist magic in public and exposed my identity as a "Buddhist Dharma Cultivator". If the mastermind behind the "Relic Mansion Adventure" learns about this matter, it may be possible to connect me with "Qin Shubao"!
When traveling in the world, safety comes first. Even if there is only a chance, you still need to be cautious.
After all, the mastermind behind the scenes is a first-class great master.
In short, before arriving in the capital and meeting Yan Tianying, Fahai's identity could no longer be used.
Even if your true identity cannot be exposed, it is best not to.
Lest anyone covet the black market reward of 100,000 silver dollars and come to cause trouble for me.
Of course, Shen Lang would not tell Bai Shishi these words, and only said:
"Don't ask more questions than you should."
Bai Shishi was speechless, and she said "Oh" angrily. She was silent for a while, but couldn't help it anymore, so she grabbed the corner of her clothes and spoke:
"Eldest sister and their souls...should have arrived at the Spider Mother by now."
Shen Lang snorted lightly, "I don't have the ability to beat people to death. The souls of Lin Meng and the others naturally went to the Spider Mother. Now, they might have been eaten by the Spider Mother."
Bai Shishi shuddered, a flash of fear flashed in her eyes, and she said calmly:
"Then, even if I am bound to die, you must help me unlock the forbidden mark on my soul before I die!"
Shen Lang glared at her:
"I've given you peace of mind, why are you still so worried? Why, you can't trust me?"
Bai Shishi forced a smile:
"It's not that I can't trust you. It's just that the consequences are so serious. How can I feel at ease so easily?"
Shen Lang said seriously:
"You have seen Venerable Liuli with your own eyes, what else do you have to worry about? At worst, I will ask Venerable Liuli to take action. Is it possible that she, a great first-class real person, can't break the restriction on your soul?"
"But the Spider Mother is a demon..."
Shen Lang laughed:
"But gods, demons, and immortals cannot come to this world in their true form. On the earth and in this world, the first rank is the most respected!"
As he said that, he raised his hand and patted Bai Shishi's shoulder gently:
"Believe me, it will be fine!"
Bai Shishi bit her lip and nodded softly.
The carriage became quiet, and Shen Lang continued to read the secret books.
In fact, all the secret books have been scanned by Little Moon on the Demon Taming Technique and transmitted into Shen Lang's mind. Shen Lang already knows the key points of the technique by heart and fully understands them. Now he is looking through the book just to deepen his impression.
After flipping through several volumes of secret books, Shen Lang closed his eyes and thought for a while. Suddenly he raised his right hand, and the flesh on his palm shook slightly. After it calmed down, it shook again a moment later.
After a few intermittent vibrations, Shen Lang suddenly activated his internal energy, and the skin and flesh on his palms suddenly vibrated at high speed, stirring the air around his palms and turning into light winds that blew out from his palms.
When Bai Shishi saw this, her eyes widened in disbelief:
"Shaking Mountain Palm? You, you actually practiced Mountain Shaking Palm?"
After Lin Meng received the Spider Mother's initiation and taught the Mountain Shaking Palm, he practiced it for more than three months before he could even get started.
And it had only been one day since Shen Lang got the secret book of Zhenshan Palm, but he had already mastered it?
Shen Lang chuckled:
"This Mountain Shaking Palm is not difficult."
As he spoke, the skin of his palms turned red again, like coals of fire, and a scorching heat emitted from his palms.
"The hand that melts iron and shatters it into gold!" Bai Shishi exclaimed, "You actually mastered the unique skill passed down from the Yan family!"
Shen Lang looked calm and relaxed:
"No need to make a fuss, it's simple."
As he spoke, his five fingers trembled, creating many afterimages and making a whistling sound. Although he did not exert any force, his five fingers could be pinched and flicked. As the strong wind overflowed, he could faintly hear the sound of "heavenly net, heavily entangled".
The feeling of "bonding".
Bai Shishi didn't make a fuss anymore, she just murmured numbly:
"Pansi Tianluo..."
Shen Lang smiled, and changed his technique again. The skin of his palm became as white as jade. He patted it forward lightly, and the air in front of his palm exploded with a loud ripple, which was visible to the naked eye, as if an invisible bomb had been detonated.
Bai Shishi's eyes were dull and her tone was erratic:
"Shattered Jade Hands..."
Shen Lang laughed, put down his palms, and stopped practicing martial arts to stimulate her. He only asked her:
"What's the name of your claw technique? Can you teach me it?"
"Star-picking claws." Bai Shishi said expressionlessly: "It is said that after practicing to the highest level, I can even pick off the stars in the sky. But I can only pick off people's hearts anyway. Do you really want to learn? This claw skill is very...
"
She wanted to say that this claw skill is very cruel and does not suit your temperament as a Buddhist monk.
But thinking about how the spider sisters died, especially the way Yunwei and Yue Ling'er died, she felt that her claw method was too gentle.
A whole corpse.
At the moment, I was too lazy to say anything more, so I memorized the key points of the "Star Reaching Claw" from beginning to end.
After finishing the memorization, she saw Shen Lang holding his chin in his hands, looking like he was deep in thought, and she couldn't help but ask:
"What's the use of learning so many martial arts? You're a Buddhist cultivator. Don't you cultivators always look down on martial artists?"
Speaking of this, she suddenly felt something was wrong.
I frowned and thought for a while, then an idea flashed through my mind, and I finally figured out what was wrong: Didn't it say you can't practice both magic and martial arts?
Why can a little evil monk do it?
Not only did he practice both law and martial arts, but he also practiced countless martial arts...
Could it be that it is just a fallacy to say that you cannot cultivate both law and martial arts, but it is actually possible?
So can I do it?
I immediately asked this question.
Shen Lang pondered for a while, then said to Bai Shishi's expectant eyes:
"Are you dreaming?"
"Ah?" Bai Shishi was stunned, her eyes widened, and she said angrily: "What do you mean? Are you looking down on me?"
Shen Lang put his hand into his arms, as if picking something up, and when he stretched out his hand, there was already a scroll in his palm:
"This is a Taoist scroll. Please open it and take a look."
Bai Shishi took the scroll and unfolded it expectantly. She only stared at it for a few breaths, then put her hand on her forehead and looked away dizzily:
"I feel so dizzy... What kind of ghost talisman is this? I can't understand it at all."
Shen Lang chuckled:
"This is just a low-level secret technique of 'Fire Finger'. Even this makes you dizzy. The ninth-grade Taoist secret technique will make you vomit when you see it. You have to accept your fate as a scumbag. Taoism is not something you can do."
Learned."
Bai Shishi glanced at the scroll with concern, and then asked unwillingly:
"Then why can you? Not only can you practice law, but you can also practice martial arts?"
Shen Lang smiled proudly:
"Of course because I am a super genius who is rare to see in a thousand years. Not only can you not learn from me, but other martial arts geniuses and Taoist geniuses can't learn from me either."
He gently patted Bai Shishi on the shoulder and said sincerely:
"As for you, you only have a little bit of martial arts talent, so you should concentrate on practicing martial arts. Although you can't sacrifice to the devil in the future to quickly improve your cultivation level, you should still be able to be promoted to the fourth level in your lifetime."
Bai Shishi: "..."
Luling Mansion was only a few hundred miles away from the capital. Shen Lang and Bai Shishi took a horse-drawn carriage for one day, and then transferred to horses at the post station the next day. With the horses whipping up, they successfully arrived at the capital at sunset.
